Been pondering why some people drive with their parking lights on, I have to say I don't understand it. I've always worked on the conservative side and figured that if it was dark enough (or conditions bad enough) to turn the lights on I was going to turn them all the way on.
And half the time if you were depending on just the parking lights to see them coming it would be too late.
And last, there's a reason they call them PARKING lights....

why not turn your lights all the way on?

by the way it is illegal to drive with parking lights on, they are supposed to be used to indicate a car that is stopped along the road in the event that stopping is needed but it is not an emergency (necessitating the hazard lights). Note that parking lights are distict from the driving lights available on some cars...
